California, Branch No. II, located in
this city. is the largest one. 1t was
organized here on the 25th of Septem-
ber, 1887, by A. B. Mcguire of San
Francisco, and for long time the
Pioneer Institute struggled alone in its
efforts to promote the interests OF the
society. 1t is now assisted by two
other branches of this city, as we'll as
by branches in every city OF impor-
tance in Southern California. AS the
banner Institute of the southern part
of this State, it commands the respect
of all the Institutes OF the State and
its progress is greatly stimulated by
the efforts of its officers and especially
by the sacrificing spirits of John L.
Moran, the president of Branch No.
IA, to whom is due in great measure
the thanks of all the institutes in
Southern California. On March b,
1887, Mr.. Moran offered a gold medal
to the member who would secure the
greatest number of members during
the next six months. During this time
twenty-one new members were in
itiated and Anthony Schwaum, re-
cording secretary, was the fortunate
one of securing the largest number of
new members. On Monday evening,
10Th inst, at the meeting OF No. IA
the presentation was made, and John
P. Moran in his customary pleasant
manner, eulogized in few fitting re-
marks, Mr.. Schwaum for his valuable
services and then affixed to the breast
of the young man a beautiful gold
medal bearing the letters "Y. M. l."
and suitably engraved on the back of
it. Mr.. Schwaum replied in his
modest manner, thanking the gener-
GUS giver. In order to create new en-
thusiasm Mr.. Moran announced that
he would give another medal to the
member who should secure the largest
number of members during the next
six months. Undoubtedly there will
be quite a competition for the new
medal and Branch No. IA will be
greatly benefited.

"THE RICH FOOL"
The Text of the Rev. MIR. Chi
chester.

ChesteFs
Luke 1912. "The Rich Fool. Thou
fool this night thy soul shall be re-
uuired of thee" This was the text of
the Rev. Mr.. Chichester of the First
Presbyterian Church on Fort and Sec
ond streets last evening. Mr.. Chi
chester began by saying: "As a gen
eral thing it is not wise in calling people
hard names with the hope of making
them better. If you cannot get rid OF
vice by means Of argument and per-
suasion, the possibility is you wont get
it out by abuse" 1t is an utter
impossibility to browbeat vice into vir-
tue, or exterminate sin by scurrillous
scoiding. Besides, character is one OF
the most precious and sacred things in
us, and rough handling Of it may lead
to most disastrous results. 10 this
general rule, however. the Omnificent
God is an exception, for he knows all
that is in us and is fully able to judge
his characters without mistake, and
this being the case he has perfect
right to say just as severe things as he
pleases against u.s.. both sinner
and sin, and OF all severe
epithets that God has applied
to erring man perhaps there are few
severer than Thou fool" Nor is
there any that he more often employs,
for if you look through your Bible you
will be surprised to find how fire.
quently man is spoken of as fool.
We read of the atheistic fool, the gos-
siping fool, the conceited fool; but oi
all these, perhaps there is none more
foolish than the one who worships his
wealth and tries to feed his soul on it.
The folly does not consist of his
boarding his treasure and not enjoying
it but his intense selfishness is the
secret of it, his disposition rather te
hoard than to use his wealth and his
miscalculation as to when his existence
! will end.

RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
Notes and Subjects at Several
Churches.

The Rev. w. B. Stradley, pastor OF
the South Methodist Church, left Sat
urday for Bear valley to attend camp
meeting, on account of the repairs un-
der way at his church.
The Rev. G. M. Spencer held SER
vices at the Grand Opera House yes
terday afternoon for the formation of a
new Congregational Church. Messrs.
Chas. Gabriel and p. DeYoe con-
Quoted the singing.
The Church of the Unity, at the
Grand Opera House, was crowded
yesterday morning, as usual. The
Rev. DIR. Eli Fay delivered his sermon
from Matthew, 16:19: 81 will give
unto thee the keys of the Kingdom of
Heaven" The chorus has been in
creased to fifteen voices, under the
dictatorship of Mr.. G. E. Lloyd, an
able leader from Oakland. The an
thems, "The Golden Gate" and "God
is the Refuge of the People," were
well sung, aud this increase of mem
bership undoubtedly gives this church
the best chorus in the city. The reg
ular order Of service was maintained.
The Rev. MIR. Uzelle, of the Sec
ond Baptist Church, on Third and
Hill street, took for his text yesterday
the words "We must pray" In a
few brief words he told how we must
pray for our enemies, although perse-
cuted and oppressed. By constant
prayer the Lord will help him who
trusts to Him.
Fort Street Methodist Church was
crowded to suffocation yesterday even
ing to hear the Rev. Mr.. Cantine.
whose sermon was based on the text,
"Have faith in God" And the des-
ciples cursed the fig-tree on account of
not having fruit, and the tree was
withered five days after their return
but Christ said: "Have faith in God, "
and the fig-tree again began to bear.
A union young peoples meeting was
held at the Fort Street Methodist
Church, yesterday afternoon at 5 80
o'clock, in which all the young folks
of the various churches gathered and
enjoyed services together. Over 500
young people were in attendance, and
prayer was led by Mr.. A. B. Clapp, OF
the First Presbyterian Church. These
meetings will be held every other
month, so that the young folks can
come together and work in harmony.

Serenaded.

The members of the Schwaben
Verein yesterday evening serenaded
H. SCHNEIDER, the president Of their
society, at his residence, No. 41S Mo-
zart street. They had engaged the
Meme Bros. band and surprised Mr..
SCHNEIDER while he was admiring his
youngest son, who was born but a few
hours s'before. Mr.. Schindler's birth
day occurs to-day, and it is said that a
Schwab only gains his fall senses on
his 4Oth birthday. Mr.. SCHNEIDER is
particularly fortunate in having so
many of the good things of life befall
him within so short a space of time.
The serenaders, after having fur
nished number of suitable musical
selections, congratulated Mr.. Schind-
ler on these occurrences of which they
knew not before.

The Stable Cure.


was not little startled the other day at
meeting on the street in the best Of health
apparently an old acquaintance whom had
supposed to be filling consumptive's grave
long ere this. The last time that heard Of
him was about year ago. and then he had
been given up by the doctors as hopeless
case. congratulated him on his recovery,
but must confess that my liveliest emotion
In regard to him was one of curiosity. In
answer to my inquiries he told me that when
the medical men had exhausted their re-
sources he determined to put in practice
plan OF his own. Accordingly he journeyed
by easy stages to the Blue Mountain region
Of Virginia, where he established himself in
a farmhouse, and bought horse, He spent
the whole day in the open air. taking care of
the steed himself, and riding him about the
neighbOrhood. At first, he told me. his
weakness was such that he could not stay In
the saddle more than 10 or 20 minutes at a
time, and he had to pull very soon If the
horse. broke into trot. Every day, how
ever, he became little stronger, and In a
couple OF months he was able to ride 10 or
70 miles on stretch with very little fatigue.
He attributed his recovery In part to the
TACT that he not only rode but groomed his
horse and busted himself an hour or two i'm
the stable every day. In this opinion he
confirmed what l remember hearing an old
physician say years and years ago, namely,
that horse barn" as he called Ii, Is one of
the healthiest places in the world For
those who love horses the stable cure would
be such pleasant one that q physician who
prescribed it might be sure that his direc-
tionS would be followed to the letter.

What the Veterans Did to Make
Yesterday Memorable.

AUGUSTA, Sept. 14.-The survivors of the
Fifteenth Maine enjoyed grand time today
and have been in the best of spirits. There
was no regular meeting during the day and
the boys strolled about the town and visited
the places of interest. Grand Army Hall
was headquarters and there a large body
could be found at all times deep in enjoy
ment so dear to a soldiers heart. A party of
fifty drove over to the Togus National Home
in the forenoon and made a tour of the
buildings and grounds Major Shorey and
Colonel Dyer visited Mr.. Fred Brown, q
well known colored citizen Of Augusta, who
was formerly in the employ of Mr.. Blaine,
and is now at work in the State House.
Fred, when small boy, came to Major
Shorey's tent, near New Orleans, from the
Rebel lines The Major cared for him and
brought the youngster home to Augusta,
where he has resided. Fred now has fam
lily, consisting of wife and two daughters,
and the two veterans had very pleasant
VISIT Mrs. Brown presenting them each
with bouquet of flowers, and the young
ladies singing
This evening the comrades wound up their
festivities with grand banquet and camp
fire. A generous and toothsome feast had
been prepared by the ladies of the Relief
Corps and Others, and the boys did ample JUS
tice to it. After the good things had been
disposed Of, they adjusted themselves in
comfortable positions and rich and entertain
ing post prandial exercises followed. The
speech making was eloquently opened by
Col. F. M. Drew, of Lewiston, who was fol-
lowed by Rev. E. S. Palmer, chaplain of
Seth Williams Post, Augusta; Mai. p. M.
Fogler, Augusta; Capt. Edward Wyman,
Augusta; DR.. l.. K. Holmes, Butte City,
Mont; Maj III. A. Shorey, Bridgton; Col.
Dyer, and Fred Brown. Major Shorey spoke
feelingly of his visit to Mr.. Browns and ex-
hibited the bouquet with which Mrs.
Brown presented him. Comrade Pear
son sung song, and Lulie and Liz
zie Brown, daughters of Fred Brown,
favored the audience with choice vocal
selections which they rendered with
much skill. C0mrade Hodgdon, of the 18th
Maine, introduced himself as a man with but
one lung, one having been shot by away by
to sing THE Old Army Bean" with a vigor
which brought the boys to their feet and
gained him much applause. He also sang
several other songs in an entertaining way
Votes of thanks were extended to Major
Shorey and comrades j. ID. FOss and j. w.
Boynton of Augusta, for their efforts in
making success of the reunion. The meet
ing broke up with cheers, and the survivors
of the 10Th Maine babe each other goodbye
at a late hour. The next reunion will be In
Bangor.

Notes..

The game in this city is the only one
scheduled for the New England League to-
day.
The Stars will play the Old Sports on the
Portland grounds Friday for the Champion
ship Of the city. Both clubs contain fine
players and an interesting game may De ex-
pected. The Old Sports have a good pitcher
and the Stars will have to play ball to win.
The rumor sent out from Lowell that the
Lynns would probably disband next Satur-
day night seems to have been without fOun-
dation. Manager Murphy said yestei day
that he should play out the season and
should not disband until IL was finished.
Lowell must find something else to be scared
about.
The game at Canton next Tuesday be-
tween the Portlands and Manchesters win
be played in the forenoon at 10 O'Clock. 1t
may possibly be league game as Manager
Spence hopes to have Ii SO, and there is ey-
cry reason why 1t should be as there are so
many games to be played of.
Higgins did not come with the Lowells as
he has lame arm. He may possibly be
here today. Burns, the pitcher, was sick at
his home in Nashua yesterday, and probably
will not be here today either. Young SuilE-
van, who defeated the New Yorks last week.

Medical Colleges.
To the Editor of the Press.

To the Editor of the Press:
In the article published in yesterdays
PRESS 1t is stated that light examination
for entrance to medical college sis not cal
culated to add TO the confidence which a
medical diploma Is intended 10 inspire In the
public mind" This gives false impression.
for II Is the examination necessary TO receive
a diploma and not any preliminary examina-
tion at entrance that determines the work Of
the men sent out from the institution. In
the leading medical schools there are always
to be found students who have gone up for
graduation time after time and failed.
As the Instruction Is given by lectures.
such students do not hinder the advance OF
others. Whereas each student feels the
necessity of a college or good academic edu-
cation In order to appreciate his advantages
in medical school, to rank well In his class,
and, If possible, to obtain hospital appoint
ment, yet light preliminary examination
for entrance or the absence OF such examlna-
tiOn is no indication that such school Is
sending out men Ill prepared for the duties
II the article bad shown that students had
been graduated without such thorough
preparation for their professional duties,
there would be some reason for excitement
but the simple fact Of deficiency in knowl-
edge of certain branches years previous to
the awarding Of their diplomas proves little
or nothing
